While Real Estate virtual tours is our bread and butter, it isn’t the best part of being a virtual tour provider with RTV. There are numerous perks, if you will, to being a virtual tour provider. For example, weekend vacations, dinners, memberships, free trips to the dentist…yes really! And quite honestly so much more. Let me start by telling you about our first “perk”. A couple of years ago Mike and I bought a travel trailer and with it came 21 free nights of camping, all we had to do was go to this resort and listen to their pitch to join.

So, ok, I want the free camping and I tell Mike, “We are absolutely not buying a membership! No way, no how!!” We get there (about an hour from our home) and take the tour. It’s very nice; we’d actually like to join, but $8,000!! Yeah, 8 grand!! Mike says, “what if I could get it for free?” Well, heck yeah…give it a try. We go into the little meeting area where they try to work you over and get you to join. We listened to it all and then Mike made his pitch, “We have something you absolutely need…” Their ears perked up. We offered to do their virtual tours of all 5 (a total of 7 tours with 30 scenes each) of their parks in Michigan and a web site in exchange for the membership. They loved the idea and we put it in writing that day! It took us two weeks to complete the virtual tours, but we vacationed at the resorts the entire time! Furthermore, we now have a lifetime membership to the resorts. Is that not a perk or what?

The resort membership was by no means our only perk. We have gone on 2 fabulous, week long, houseboat trips ($5000-$7000 a piece), one on Norris Lake in Tennessee and one on Green River Lake in Kentucky. We still have one houseboat trip banked for the spring of next year on Lake Cumberland (KY). We’ve also spent a weekend in a condo in Mackinaw City, a weekend in a log chalet overlooking Lake Norris, a weekend in a 5000 square foot retreat home with a private pool and hot tub and numerous free dinners around the country!

To sum it all up, the perks are absolutely awesome! Quite honestly, if you work it right, you will never have to “pay” for a vacation again!! Don’t discredit the real estate virtual tours though. They pay the bills!

Alamo Area Virtual Tours LLC has been in the virtual tour business for over three years and is always trying to improve its offerings. The upcoming new RealTour Fusion virtual tour system is going to revolutionize the abilities of the smaller providers in able to provide 360 virtual tours of the quality of much bigger organizations that in the past would need thousands of dollars of equipment to complete/compete

The limits of use of Video clips is left to the imagination. Just as the products that we can provide to our virtual tour customers and allows for even more breadth of service. What I’m presenting to you today is one such expansion . I was helping out a friend with trying to sell his car when I realized the value of unique URL’s in not only helping a Real Estate agent in using the address as a tool in internet marketing, but in this case in people looking to buy a VW. Now of course, VW is well know and it is also known that people will look for VW’s for sale on the internet by doing a broad search.

Without advertising http://www.vw4sale.info is receiving numerous hits per week. With that in mind, and that my friend no longer is trying to sell his car, I’ve turned the slide show into a marketing tool that hopefully will generate more virtual tour business. View it at the URL above.

Again the imagination is the limits to your virtual tour business and possible customers. www.AlamoAreaVirtualTours.com in conjunction with and the Awesome support of RTV makes all this possible.
